OBJECTIVES: Pregnancy complicated with ovarian endometrioma is a risk factor for preterm delivery and rupture or infection during pregnancy. This study aimed to clarify the effectiveness and safety of transvaginal aspiration during pregnanc…
Massive obstetric haemorrhage remains a major cause of maternal death attributable to hypofibrinogenaemia. Transfusion of large volumes of fresh frozen plasma (FFP) is required to normalise fibrinogen levels. We compared the efficacy of FFP…
In 2014, we published an article titled "Novel uterine sarcoma preoperative diagnosis score predicts the need for surgery in patients presenting with a uterine mass" on the preoperative diagnosis of uterine sarcoma, in the SpringerPlus (Nag…
Preoperative diagnosis of uterine sarcoma is very difficult, and currently, its diagnostic accuracy is not satisfactory. It is therefore important to perform surgery and establish the pathological diagnosis if the clinical findings and vari…
Tumour necrosis factor alpha (TNFalpha), a proapoptotic cytokine, is known to be present in peritoneal fluid from women with endometriosis. An emerging view is that soluble TNF receptors (sTNFR) can modulate the effects of TNFalpha by actin…
PROBLEM: In the quest for possible involvement of stem cell factor (SCF), a cytokine known to have multiple effects, in the pathogenesis of endometriosis, we evaluated concentrations of SCF in peritoneal fluid (PF) of women with or without …
2,3,7,8-Tetrachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin (TCDD) has been suggested as a possible etiologic factor for endometriosis, a condition in which endometrium-like tissues are present outside the uterus. The prevailing view pertaining to the origin of en…
The concentrations of hepatocyte growth factor (HGF) in peritoneal fluid (PF) from women with endometriosis (n = 36) and without endometriosis (n = 40) were measured. All of the PF samples examined contained detectable concentrations of HGF…
Vaginal agenesis combined with a functional uterus is a rare condition in which treatment modalities that preserve reproductive function are controversial. A 21 year old female presented with congenital vaginal agenesis combined with cervic…
